Rownhams is a village in Hampshire, standing within the northern edge of the conurbation stretching out from Southampton, beside Nursling. The M27 motorway carves its path to the north of the village, and a motorway service station, Rownhams Services, is nearby.

The village consists of over 1200 homes. Rownhams house, a Georgian mansion, is now a business park and wedding venue,[1] The parish church is St John the Evangelist.[2] There is a community centre, a primary school,[3] two pre-schools and a hairdressing salon. The village is planned to grow in the next few years as several planning applications are either in the system or have been approved.
